Something in the air

Snow. It melts off the sidewalk the next day. It snows again two days later. Melts off the sidewalk the next day. I'm getting kinda bored with that.

But that's not all that's in the air.

The Human assistant came back from the shelter smelling like Akita on Saturday. You may remember that I mentioned Caesar a few times last month. Well take a look:

Caeser's blowing his coat
Tearing up stuffies, maybe?
it looks like Caeser's getting bald on top!
Is that "Male Pattern Baldness"?


Kinda looks like he's blowin' his coat. So I guess Akitas really are a northern breed. A Wikipedia article says they're from Japan. I din't think that was northern. But ... ?

It also says they weigh up to 40 kilograms. The H.A. says that's 88 pounds in American. He also says Caeser will still weigh more than that even if he loses every hair on his body!

He'd make a pretty big Xoloitzcuintli! Caesar, I mean. Well, H.A. would too!

Remember Blue and Sequoia?

Well, Blue did get adopted.  YAY!  And Sequoia's family brought her into the shelter to finalize her adoption!  DOUBLE YAY!  

Silly 11-month-old Sequoia has a pack sister. Here they are, Spirit and Sequoia:

Spirit's paying attention, Sequoia isn't
Hey! Sequoia!
Sequoia sitting strangely, plus Spirit
Straighten up, kid!

(Remembering another goofy pic)
Now Spirit and Sequoia are ready!
Finally!  Shoot it!


There are no more Siberian Huskies at Maxfund! Is this the end of the Sibe of the Month Club? Could anything take its place?

Stay tuned!

Dogs here and there

I'm really embarrassed! The Human Assistant hasn't let me post anything for days! And I haven't kept up with everydoggy's blogs. Fooey!  ​

Awhile back somedoggies gave me awards. I didn't say thank you. THANK YOU! But the awards require you to pass them on to others. And I haven't been able to do that. So I guess I'd better not keep them! But thanks!

I wanted to tell everydoggie that Sequoia was back at the shelter. Her family said that she was untrainable, couldn't be controlled, and didn't respond to her name!

Let's see ... Siberian Husky ... less than a year old ... and I bet they weren't holding food in their hands, huh?

But I don't need to go into all that. Sequoia was adopted again by other people. Hope that works out!

Blue's just a little thin....

What happened to his tail?


And Blue came to the shelter. H.A. doesn't remember his story. With that snow nose he doesn't look much like an ol' coon-hound Blue! But whatever. He may be adopted soon. There's an application waiting for reference checks.

Lucy has a dogster page now. H.A. will finish writing a new description for her and it will go on her MaxFund page soon. She's okay. I won't miss her or anything. But she does leave food in her bowl that I get to snarf.

I got pink on my owie.

To go with my collar and leash!


She tore her dewclaw. So she went to the MaxFund clinic. They said to leave the bandage on for a day or two. She had been licking, licking, licking at the dewclaw. But they said that she would leave it alone now. Hah! She left the bandage on for about a day and then tore it off. But she does nearly always leave the owie alone now.

Holly, you aksed who the new dog is in the last blog. There's just Gremlin and Lucy and me.

my dog Gremlin
Sweetie-pie Gremlin's almost 14!
my dog Gremlin wooos
A woooing Honorary Sibe!


Gremlin came to live with H.A. when she was 8 weeks old. Her tail was already docked! The Colorado Springs animal shelter said she's a German Shepherd and Rottweiler.

Gremlin used to dig under the fence and get out. Then she wouldn't come when she was called. Or she'd come running to the H.A. and then zoom around him and keep running! So she's an Honorary Siberian Husky. And she woos.

I have to not bother Gremlin much. She's been here 10 times longer than I have! So H.A. says if there's trouble between us, I'm out of my happy home. (That's what he calls it, anyway.)

Thank you all for reading! I'll try to get back to you soon!
